Agenda
Example 1: Alarm for left things
Example 2: Body motion sensors to control TV game
Why WBAN standard suited for the E-Charm applications?

Example 1: Alarm for left things
If carrying important things are left somewhere, alarm beeps.
Mobile phone
Key
Wallet
Wristwatch
ID card

5. E-Charm for carrying things
January 2007
E-Charm for carrying things
Carrying things with E-Charms makes an ad-hoc network.
If one thing is far away from other things, the network can notice it.

6. Example 2: Body motion sensors to control TV game
January 2007
Example 2: Body motion sensors to control TV game
Motion of bodies controls TV games.
Dancing
Fighting
Playing sports (Baseball, tennis, golf, etc)
Exercising

7. E-Charm for controlling games
January 2007
E-Charm for controlling games
Motion sensors are attached to arms, legs, heads, etc., and they make an ad-hoc network.
The sensor data are gathered and sent to the game server.

8. January 2007
Why is WBAN standard suited for the two applications by E-charm applications?
The transmittable range up to 2-3 meters is desirable and enough for a network constructed within a human audible and visible range.
WBAN standard is SAR-conscious.

9. Why is RF-ID not suited for E-Charm Applications?
January 2007
Why is RF-ID not suited for E-Charm Applications?
E-Charm applications require to send date actively.
Why is WPAN standard not suited for
E-Charm Applications?
The transmittable range up to 10 meters is too large.
WPAN is not SAR-conscious.
